Which symptom of aortic aneurism can lead to a missed diagnosis that could have fatal consequences:

The correct answer is B-back pain. It is very important to know that sometimes patients with aortic aneurism present having only back pain and are sometimes prescribed painkillers and sent back home. So in order to lower the chances of missing this diagnosis, the doctor should at least perform a sonographic exam and palpate the abdominal area. The other answers are false because they are more likely to lead to the admission of the patient into the hospital and further investigation of the symptoms.
